Walker Percy: A Southern Wayfarer

This valuable and informative book is a study of Percy's five novels in the context of his southern and American literary sources and his tragic personal history. This perceptive study examines Percy's novels in the light of psychoanalytic theory, philosophy, and literary analysis. The author finds that Percy's fiction has been shaped as much by what Percy rejected as by what he embraced.
